Happy Birthday, Sweet Eleanor!

My sweet girl turned 3 on Sunday. She was so excited for her big day, had been counting down for a couple of weeks. We had a family party Saturday evening, complete with balloons, flowers, a new dress, and the requested pizza and pink cake! Our lives changed forever - in a most amazing and wonderful way - when God blessed us with Eleanor THREE years ago. She has grown so much and keeps us constantly laughing at her antics, huge vocabulary, sense of humor. She amazes and blesses us with her questions about God, Jesus Christ, Heaven, prayer, salvation, sovereignty...Her sweet spirit is a source of joy in our household; she is adored by her daddy, mommy and little brother! Happy Birthday, Eleanor Jane!

24 weeks! and the kids that keep me hoppin'

in the tub

Playing in the big tub at my parents' house. Who knew a dry tub could be so much fun?! The fun ended after about 15 minutes when Will decided to turn on the water. *grin*

Taking advantage...

...of crazy 70 degree weather in the beginning of March! Monday was Todd's day off, so we went to the zoo! Here are a few pictures...more to come. We came home for naps, then went grocery shopping as a family and had dinner "out" at Costco - a fantastic day for a total cost of $6.89! (okay, minus the groceries.)
